Hi,
Remove 'C:\ProgramData\FLEXnet\adskflex_00691b00_tsf.data'
Remove 'C:\ProgramData\FLEXnet\adskflex_00691b00_tsf.data_backup.001'
When you restart 3ds Max, the files will be recreated and activation is possible again.
If removing the files is not possible, open 'Windows Task Manager' and close any Autodesk associated programs. You will see Autodesk by description of the programs in Task Manager.
Uninstall the software and delete the ProductInformation.pit and CascadeInfo.cas files located at C:\ProgramData\Autodesk\Adlm. Then restart and reinstall the software with admin rights or by Run as Administrator, this will clear your license error.
Check out the services running in Windows by entering the task manager and start the FLEXnet Licensing Service 64 if you have 3ds max x64 and it will resolve the issue.
